After reviewing these two case studies above, NRCS staff then will walk through components of the application and provide tips on how to prepare a successful application. The announcement for program funding for FY 2018 is expected within the next few weeks, so this webinar is a timely opportunity to learn how RCPP can be a good source of conservation funding here in Oregon.

Presenters will include:

Derek Johnson, The Nature Conservancy of Oregon

Brendan Weiner, Gallatin Valley Land Trust, Montana

Loren Unruh, NRCS Oregon
